What type of wire should I use on my aviary? Chicken wire is too big, so I was thinking rabbit wire. Are there any toxic metals in this? What do you guys use?

Thanks!
Haley

I know chicken wire/poultry wire is mainly galvanized which you want to stay away from

All the articles i read said to use Stainless steel wire

But I'm not sure if ungalvanized wire would be fine? I'm not certain what it's made of though, but i know I've read some where (wish i could remember where) that ungalvanized wire was okay for birds

Ok thank you!

Do you know where you can buy stainless steel wire? Like at the hardware store maybe?

I don't know if you have a lowes or a home depot , but I'd try both of those places, I'm pretty sure hardware stores do also
